Homie: The App Helping First-Time Homebuyers Build Buying Power
Manage episode 508204182 series 2363800
Buying your first home can feel overwhelming — from saving a down payment to understanding mortgage rules. In this segment of Moolala: Money Made Simple with Bruce Sellery, Bruce talks with Andrew Peker, founder and CEO of Homie, a new Canadian fintech app designed to help first-time homebuyers understand, track, and grow their buying power.
Andrew explains how Homie works:
- Pulling real financial data securely through partners like Plaid and Equifax Canada
- Showing users what they can afford based on how a mortgage underwriter would see them
- Offering habit-building nudges — from avoiding new car loans that could hurt your approval, to staying aware of interest rate impacts
- Helping users plan for hidden costs like cash reserves, land transfer taxes, and closing fees
If you’re a first-time homebuyer in Canada or helping someone become one, this segment will give you practical insight into mortgage readiness, budgeting smarter, and avoiding costly mistakes on the road to homeownership.
